Yes. I mean it also depends on how litigous and protective the company is.

Apple Computers once sued an Australian Green Grocer for trademark infringement because the Greengrocer's new logo looked like an Apple. (pic related).
>How fucking insane is that? A Greengrocer can't use an apple because of a technology company that stole the name of the Beatle's management company.

Having said that, McIntosh Laboratories (super super hi-fi equipment )are still around decades after the Macintosh Computer.

Generally though it's "could a reasonable person confuse the two" if the answer is No, you're in the clear. But there's always a margin of risk to these things.
